Answer:

What line is perpendicular to the line 2x + 3y = 6 through (4, 1)? Explanation: The given equation is in standard form, so it must be converted to slope-intercept form: y = mx + b to discover the slope is –2/3. To be perpendicular the new slope must be 3/2 (opposite reciprocal of the old slope)

find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-8,-5) and (-4,1)
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

y = -x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint of the line:

x = (x1 + x2)/2 = (-8 + -4)/2 = -12/2 = -6

y = (y1 + y2)/2 = (-5 + 1)/2 = -4/2 = -2

so midpoint is (-6,-2)

Slope of the line: Slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-1 - -5)/(-4 - -8) = (-1 + 5)/(-4 + 8) = 4/4 = 1

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another

so slope of the perpendicular line is -1/1 is -1

y = mx + b

y = -x + b

Using (-6,-2)

-2 = -(-6) + b

-2 = 6 + b

b = -8

so y = -x - 8

The measure of two supplementary angles are x+10 and 2x-5. Find the values of x and then find the angles
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

  68 1/3, 111 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two supplementary angles is 180°, so ...

  (x +10) +(2x -5) = 180

  3x +5 = 180 . . . . . collect terms

  x +5/3 = 60 . . . . . divide by 3

  x = 58 1/3 . . . . . . . subtract 5/3

The first angle is ...

  x +10 = 58 1/3 +10 = 68 1/3

The second angle is ...

  2x -5 = 2(58 1/3) -5 = 116 2/3 -5 = 111 2/3

The angles measure 68 1/3 and 111 2/3.

The point-slope form of a line that has a slope of –2 and passes through point (5, –2) is shown below.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

y =-2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a point and a slope

(5,-2)  and m =-2

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b

y = -2x+b

Substitute in the point

-2 = -2(5)+b

-2 = -10+b

Add 10 to each side

-2+ 10 = -10+10 +b

8 = b

The equation is

y =-2x+8
